Inflow and Infiltration Solutions

Aging infrastructure and community growth create opportunities for inflow and infiltration (I/I)—clean water—to enter wastewater collection systems. This robs critical capacity and increases treatment costs. At RJN, we offer comprehensive solutions to address inflow and infiltration in sewer systems, allowing you to restore system capacity and reduce operational costs.

Inflow and Infiltration Reduction
Restores System Capacity

We offer flexible approaches to locating I/I sources and measuring impacts that will make a difference to your ongoing system costs and operations.

Pinpoint Your Sewer
Inflow and Infiltration Sources

Specialty tools and techniques

enable our engineering professionals to detect critical I/I sources within your sewer system, ranging from basin-level projections to in-pipe inspections.

Inflow and infiltration quantification and mitigation solutions

enable our engineers to confidently direct and prioritize sound mitigation measures. We view the system as a whole using proven, in-house algorithms to assign I/I rates to each defect and asset, ensuring the most efficient use of resources.

Industry-standard condition ratings

establish reliable and actionable criticality scores for each asset, enhancing the management of your wastewater infrastructure. RJN is a member of NASSCO and uses PACP, LACP, and MACP scoring.

Program Strategies
